From Job Hunt to Career Odyssey: Taking Ownership of Your Professional Path

job hunter femaleMany people feel stuck in a rut when it comes to their careers. They spend countless hours applying for jobs that seem like a good fit but have not heard back from employers. Or they may land a job, only to feel disengaged and unfulfilled after a short period.

There’s a reason for this feeling: the traditional job hunt is a reactive approach to your career. You respond to open positions advertised by companies and try to fit your skills and experience into their mold.

According to January data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the average job search in the United States lasts 20.9 weeks. Does that surprise you? According to Business Insider Magazine, the more you earn, the harder it is to find a job.

But what if there was a different way? Could you take a proactive approach to your career and define your ideal work scenario? This is the core concept of working with a Career Ownership Coach®.

The Disengaged Workforce

70% of workers globally report feeling disengaged at work. This means that most people are unhappy and unsatisfied with their careers. There are many reasons for this, but one of the most significant factors is people’s lack of ownership over their professional lives.

When you’re constantly on the job hunt, you’re putting your future in the hands of employers. You’re at their mercy, hoping they will see your value and offer you a position. This can be a very disempowering experience.

On the other hand, when you take ownership of your career, you’re in the driver’s seat. You define your own goals and take steps to achieve them, which can be a much more fulfilling and rewarding experience.

A career ownership search is a proactive approach to your career development. It’s about taking the time to identify your skills, values, and goals and then using that information to find opportunities that are a good fit for you.

Here are the critical steps involved in a career ownership search with a Career Ownership Coach®:

  • Self-Assessment: The first step in any career ownership search is to take some time for self-assessment. This means thinking about your skills, experience, values, and long-term career goals. What are you good at? What do you care about? What do you want to achieve in your career?
  • Ideal Work Scenario: Once you better understand yourself, you can start brainstorming your ideal work scenario. What kind of work do you want to do? What kind of work environment do you thrive in? What kind of compensation and benefits are important to you?

This doesn’t just mean looking for open positions on job boards. A Career Ownership Coach® can introduce you to many opportunities that fit your needs and skills.
  • Building Your Brand: In today’s job market, creating a solid personal brand is more important than ever. Your Career Ownership Coach® can introduce you to their network to help you find the perfect fit.

How to Get Started with a Career Ownership Search?

A Career Ownership Coach® can be your guide. They will keep you focused, evaluate your skills, and use their expertise and network to find an opportunity that is not only right but may also be something you did not know existed.

There are many benefits to taking a proactive approach to your career development.

Here are just a few:

  • Increased Happiness and Fulfillment: When you’re in control of your career, you’re more likely to find work that you’re passionate about and that aligns with your values. This can lead to greater happiness and fulfillment in your professional life.
  • Greater Security: In today’s economy, there’s no such thing as a job for life. But when you take ownership of your career, you’re better prepared for whatever comes your way. By continuously developing your skills and building your network, you’ll be in a better position to find new opportunities if you need to.
  • Higher Earning Potential: When you know your worth and can effectively market your skills, you can negotiate a higher salary or rate better.
  • More Control Over Your Work Life: When you take ownership of your career, you have more control over your work life. You can decide what kind of work you want to do, how you want to work, and with whom you want to work.
